Good web site, will be better if you add more content and I believe it will be useful for pythoners T.T

Looks good for a start. Bit more work on layout + regular updates with new articles and it's good to go.

Serif font for headers and sans-serif for body looks wrong - usually it's the other way around. OTOH many people prefer sans-serif for digital media and serif for paper media. For example Wikipedia is sans-serif only.

Rather than having a grid on the front page, perhaps a structured table of contents would be more useful?

sounds like a good idea, haven't thought that much about the organisation.

I'm not a designer either, but I don't think there was anything wrong with the choice of fonts. I'm on a HTPC and I've found the body to be quite readable. The header's font seems kind of Comic Sans-y, but I for one have absolutely no problem with it. My beef is with the space between paragraphs, which I think is too short. And I'd probably move the separating lines to before the subheaders rather than below them.
